Winter walking & snowshoehiking in Obergurgl-Hochgurgl

Winter Hiking

Routes

White, whiter, whitest is everything you will see…

Really big eyes for all winter hikers in the rear Ötztal: the pace is excellent to admire the unspoilt beauty of the Alpine mountains and landscapes. 12 km of cleared, signposted winter walking trails lead through snow-covered stone pine forests, white meadows and along the frozen Gurgler Ache brook. Take an even deeper insight into marvelous backcountry areas on guided snowshoeing adventures.

It is recommended to move daily in the fresh air. However, as time is scarce, we praise a round in the Oberriederschleife.With the approx. 2.5 km this is mastered in shortest time. Despite the short duration offers a magnificent view of snowy mountains and the Pestkapelle which was built in the 17th century on a hill.

Author’s recommendation
